I figured I would throw my post on here. I don't quite have the time to read everyone's posts right now but hopefully someday, maybe. I'm very busy. I have 2 jobs, I go to school online, I baby-sit my niece and nephew a few times a week, and I'm try to start planning a wedding. So somewhere in there I'm trying to find room to exercise. I think I'll be able to do it because I'm pretty excited about taking control of my weight again. I hope everything works out. Good luck to everyone!

Hi! Peggy119 here I joined yesterday, also. I am looking to reduce my size by 100 plus pounds. You mentioned how busy you are then said, "ME TOO." I am a single mother of two. I work full-time for the public schools. I volunteer with the 4-H youth group. I am a commissioner on the City's Keep the City Beautiful Board. I am back in school full-time so that I can grow-up to be a teacher. (I'm 43). My exercise program from the site begins Next Monday the 19th. I made some committments to myself in November/December: walking the dogs 1.5 miles a day. Stopped eating Pizza (even when I was ordering veggies only) Pizza had become a staple in my house not a treat... anyways; I'm glad to have found this site. I know anything worth doing takes TIME. *smile
